In the Carabao Cup - the renamed League Cup - extra-time will be scrapped to reduce "additional fatigue issues" for players following a vote by EFL clubs.

Instead, games will go straight to penalties if the scores are level after 90 minutes. Extra-time will only be played in the final at Wembley.

Penalty shootouts will also revert to the traditional Team A, Team B format after the ABBA format was trialled last season, while video assistant referees (VAR) will also be used at Premier League grounds.

There will also be no seeding for the Carabao Cup, although round one will remain regionalised into north and south sections.

The penalty shootout change will also be the case for the Checkatrade Trophy, a competition in which the Brewers will compete for the first time in its current guise.

A minor rule change for the Trophy means EFL clubs will now be given the opportunity to name players who are out on loan at National League clubs in their squads for games.
